> accept the appointment of commits
oler of emigration of the st. Paul,
rsinn2ap0lis u Manitoba railway, with
headquarters at st. Paul. Leaving the
Manitoba company in 1888, Mr.. Johnson
established the first general emigration
Office in the Northwest. at once receiv-
ing the appointment for his firm of the
general Northwestern agency of thC
rhingvalla line. During all thesc, wears
of active, uninteTunt"d service in emil
graf. raj, p.r. Johnson has been staunch
and consistent friend of the Northwest,
and his interesting annual reviews on
emigration. as we'll as his frequent con-
tributionS, have been eagerly sought for
by the best metropolitan American
papers. Or late he has spent much of
his time in Chicago tiG::.3S business.
OLAF o. SEARLE,
the junior member of the firm of \. f..
Johnson u Co., was born in Frederik-
Shald, Norway, and came to st. Paul in
1881. In the fall of that year Mr.. Searle
commenced work in the emigration de
partment of the st. Paul, Minneapolis
X Manitoba railway, land remained there
till 1883, when he and Mr.. Johnson as
sociated themselves in their present
business. When they first started the
force consisted of two partners, \. +.
Johnson and Olaf O. Searle, and an
office boy. Now the firm employs seven
clerks ana their Office is perfect bee
hive. Some idea of their business may
be had when we say that during 1885
not less than 10000 letters were received
and answered from their Office: 5000
passage tickets We're sold for the Thing
valla line through the Northwestern
agency, besides large number for the
English and German lines; over $4,000
acres of Minnesota lands were sold to
actual settlers: upwards of 1,0OO.000
kroner was safely transmitted by this
firm from Scandinavians in the North
west to relatives at home. ana the total
transactions of the firm exceeded $780,
600, gratifying result for only three
years work. Mr. Searle is every inch Il
business man as we'll as gentleman.

bault. Hon. Hans Mattson has prom
Used to be present and read a paper on

dOubtedly contain many interesting

of Scandinavianism in Minnesota.
GRAND FORKS, OAK.
At Grand Forks to-day the N0rwe-
gians have arranged for a grand Sgt
tendemai meeting" The different ma
tiOnalitieS up there have been keeping
pretty distinctly apart from each other.
But, Judging from the prominent part
which the ScandinavianS took in the
''anti-coerciOn meeting lately held at
the lriSh-AmericanS in return will par
take there in the Norwegian celebration
of the 18th of May. The orator, our
townsman, Rev. christopher Janson,
surely will make the Grand Forks audi
ence thrill with emotional enthusiasm,
as he lets loose on the glorious NOrwe-
gian birthday"
EAU CLAIRE, WIS.
Wisconsin. at an early period, was the
principal stronghold of the Scandinav-
ianS in America. 1t is still the home of
vast number of Norwegians, and this
year Eau Claire is on hand with quite
an extensive programme i'll the line of
"Syttendemai programmes" The Nor
wegian orator, author and critic, Rev.
Erik l.. Peterson. of Faribault, will de-
liver the speech of the day.
TIE SWEDISH BROTHERS.
The society of the Swedish Broth
ers'' will join in the 18th of May parade
at Minneapolis, headed as it will be by
the Sidwell'S band. So will also the
Norden society and the Swedish guard.
The DANA society also partakes in the
march and festivities to-day. 1t is i'm
possible to name all the societies that
will partake in the demonstration DE
cause it is not known beforehand ex-
actly how many, but it might be pointed
out here, as a fair token of a better
understanding between the three Sean
dinavian nationalities, that the harmony
and good will displayed to-day shows an
attainment never before owned by Sean
dinavianS in this state.
